Hamid, commanding a recoilless gun detachmentSeeing gravity, moved to stop the tank regimentIn gun mounted jeep disregarding personal safety, Taking his position he knocked out a tank of enemy.

Intense enemy shelling and tank fire couldn't deter His sustained act of bravery knocked out an other; One by one he knocked out six with accurate fire, Then changed his position for seventh, with dare.

By this time, enemy had spotted his position, On him brought down concentrated machine gun. The intense and continued fire put him in trouble A war was continued between steel made and muscle

He fought, as not the tanks, he was made of steel Kept on firing, with his courage and patriotic feel.As he fired to destroy the seventh tank of enemy, Wounded by a high explosive shell, mortally;

His bravery and steel like determination, destroyed Six plus one tank, which took The Hero too, alongDefended his mother land with strong determination And lived for ever, in hearts of people of his nation.

Comments about Abdul Hameed by S.D. TIWARI

A very nice tribute paid to the memory of one of the greatest patriots. It is a great write. I like it and salute your imagery as well as the hero portrayed. Ten out of ten.
I invite you to read my poems with the theme 'Romance With Democracy' and comment on them.
